Ayurveda

Ayurveda:

Ayus = life

Veda = science or knowledge

Ayurveda is a 5,000 year-old consciousness-based system of healing from India. 

The purpose of Ayurveda is to help us return to our natural state of health, balance, and wholeness. Ayurveda recognizes the primacy of consciousness and offers powerful practices that can help us change the qualities of our experiences in consciousness to create health and balance in your mind-body system. 

Ayurveda is preventative, participatory, and personalized approach to health and well-being. By working with your body's natural rhythms and not against them, you can create a daily routine that will transform your health and your life.

Ayurvedic practices include sensory modulation, meditation, yoga, nutrition, emotional wellbeing, physical activity, breathing practices, daily routines and many other tools and practices for shifting our consciousness towards health and happiness. 

The six most important pillars of health to focus on in our daily lifestyle are sleep, meditation, movement/physical activity, healthy emotions, self-care, and optimal nutrition.  All of these components are included in the Soul Pansophy Ayurvedic Lifestyle Program.

Only 5% of disease-related gene mutations are fully penetrant (the gene directly causes a disorder). 95% of disease-related gene mutations increase your risk factors for disease but they do not predict the disease. 

Current scientific research validates Ayurvedic techniques. Studies conducted at the Chopra Center reported:

• Anxiety reduction
• Sustained increases in psychological well-being
• Decrease in chemicals that may increase the risk of heart disease

Ayurvedic techniques can change gene expression to promote healing, self-regulation, and homeostasis (balance).
